A Moment of Lunacy

I'm joining NaNoWriMo.

As if I already didn't have enough things to do.

My brother told me about this writing "competition" where people sit down and write a 50,000 word novel in one month. If they can do it, they send in their novel and get a certificate. If they can't... well, tough. At least they have the start of a novel of their own.

So either way it's pretty cool. NaNoWriMo = National Novel Writing Month. For some reason, the worst month (at least for me) was chosen. November. I never have less free time than in November. But my brother convinced me, so I'm doing it.

I'm supposed to only start on November 1, but it's okay if I write an outline and come up with characters and stuff before then. I did that today. I'm downloading this word processor thing called Scrivener and I'm starting as soon as it's not considered cheating.

I doubt that I'll even get to 10,000 words. But it's definitely worth a try.

Good luck me.
